TikTok is one of the most popular video platforms. It is focused on immediacy through short videos, competing directly against Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.
Other social platforms like Twitter also tried to adopt TikTok’s short video format with Twitter Fleets. However, in this case, the feature was not well received and the company removed it after a few weeks.
Just like other video platforms, TikTok allows you to leave comments on posts. But currently this function is behaving erratically, according to multiple reports.
Apparently, TikTok comments are not loading or showing for many users, in addition to user comments being automatically deleted or cluttered (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8).
TikTok comments not loading or showing for many
Multiple reports on social networks like Twitter describe the same situation. The TikTok users comments randomly disappear, are partially loaded or are not loaded at all (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).
In certain cases, TikTok comments appear out of order or on other videos.
No official acknowledgment, some potential workarounds
In case you are experiencing the issue in question, there are some potential workarounds that you can try. For instance, you can restart the app, log out and back in, or reinstall the app entirely.
However, it’s worth pointing out that the origin of the issue could be on the TikTok servers. So, it is possible that it will continue to be present until the company applies a fix on its platform.
-Close the application and reopen it – try fully closing the TikTok app, to see if this is a quick fix -Log out – logging out and back in again is the next easy option -Reinstall TikTok – A slightly longer, you could try removing the app from your device, and downloading it again
However, given this bug seems to be widespread, these quick fixes might not make any difference, if it requires a fix from TikTok itself. Source
